the first step is admitting you have a problem..

i have a problem...i am addicted to food that makes me sick.

i spent 35 years eating lots of bread and milk, cheese and cookies.

then, i had this perfect baby.

he got sick with the most horrible eczema known to man that would not go away.

after pleading with the pediatrican, she performed a RAST allergy test.

he tested positive for egg whites, dairy, wheat and peanuts.

he was 8 months old then.

i was still breastfeeding so i eliminated all those things from my diet as well.

his eczema cleared up immediately.  the dark circles under his eyes disappeared.  his poops were less painful too.

and i lost 40 lbs - really fast.  i felt amazing.  i was allergic too!  who knew?  all my "stomach issues" growing up were this?

that was 8 months ago.

but sure enough i fell off the wagon.  not immediately, not even for the holidays.

more like during extreme stress about a month ago.

and now i am "sick" again and detoxing.

memo to self......remember how you feel now...and think TWICE, THREE TIMES, FOUR TIMES...before you put another piece of toxic food in your mouth ever again!!
